Chelsea FC Notable captains

Chelsea Football Club is a professional football club in London, England, that competes in the Premier League. Founded in 1905, the club’s home ground since then has been Stamford Bridge.

Nicknamed the Blues, Chelsea won the First Division title in 1955, followed by various cup competitions between 1965 and 1971. The past two decades have seen sustained success, with the club winning 21 trophies since 1997. In total, the club has won 27 major trophies; six titles, seven FA Cups, five League Cups and four FA Community Shields, one UEFA Champions League, two UEFA Cup Winners’ Cups, one UEFA Europa League, and one UEFA Super Cup.

John Terry

Chelsea FC Notable Captains John Terry

The best Chelsea FC captain in recent history has been easily John Terry. He has won every trophy that you can as a footballer in England. Terry has won the Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup, Champions League, Community Shield, and the Europa League.

Terry is Chelsea’s most successful captain, having led them to five Premier League titles, four FA Cups, three League Cups, one UEFA Europa League, and one UEFA Champions League title since 2004. He is one of five players to have made over 500 appearances for Chelsea and is also the club’s all-time highest scoring defender.

Following Desailly’s retirement, new Chelsea manager José Mourinho chose John Terry as his club captain, a choice which was vindicated throughout the 2004–05 season as Chelsea won the Premier League title in record-breaking fashion with the best defensive record in Football League history with the most number of clean sheets and the most points accrued. He was voted Player of the Year by his fellow professionals in England.

He is the best of our Chelsea FC Notable Captains list in our opinion with Dennis Wise following closely behind.

Dennis Wise

Chelsea FC most notable captains Dennis Wise

Wise signed for Chelsea on 3 July 1990 for a then club-record fee of £1.6 million. In his first season with the club, he scored 13 goals in 44 matches as Chelsea finished in 11th place.

Wise’s former Wimbledon teammate Vinnie Jones joined Chelsea prior to the 1991–92 season and the intimidating presence of his fellow Londoner in the middle of the park seemed to help him rediscover his best form.

Wise was Chelsea’s top scorer for the season with 14 goals from midfield, with perhaps his best performance coming in a 2–1 victory away to Liverpool on 1 February 1992; Chelsea’s first league win at Anfield since 1935.

So who are the recent most notable captains? Well, John Terry is the most recent notable captain. The defender is a legend at Stamford Bridge. Terry’s devotion to Chelsea is such that he refused to play for another Premier League team after leaving Chelsea.

Terry now plays for Aston Villa in the Championship. But he may help Aston Villa back up to the Premier League after being named in the Championship team of the year.
